I personally purchase Madden every year. This Madden seems to just be a repeat of the past few years other then the new players added. I play franchise mode the most. So I was looking forward to the new changes that we were told that was supposed to be implemented in this game. Wheres the contract restructuring? Where's the 5th year option for rookies? Where's the 6 slot trade negotiations? Etc. It's false advertisement tell us that all these different things are in the game. We purchase the game and find out this is just a duplicate of years past other then the players. Also, how can most all of the teams have almost the same overall ratings? Some teams Excell and other teams don't. Superbowl caliber teams should be in the 90's, not the 80's. Teams that lose all the time should be in high 60's low 70's. In my opinion, this game needs alot of work. I would suggest not purchasing because this is the same game that we have sitting on our shelves already. Either that or wait for the price to go down in your local Walmart. It's not worth the money. But that just 1 man's opinion.
